The two nuclei in the carbon monoxide (CO) molecules are 0.1128 nm apart.  The mass of the carbon atom is 1.993x10-26 kg.  The mass of the oxygen atom is 2.656x10-26 kg.  Spectroscopic measurements show that adjacent vibrational energy levels for the CO molecule are 0.269 eV.   What is the effective spring constant of the CO molecule? (Give your answer in N/m.)
